in_o his_o five_o number_n he_o tedious_o repeat_v the_o same_o argument_n of_o press_v the_o word_n esse_fw-la to_o signify_v existence_n only_o he_o add_v a_o more_o silly_a confirmation_n for_o where_o the_o pope_n speak_v of_o all_o three_o sort_n of_o soul_n be_v in_o heaven_n in_o common_a and_o use_v the_o three_o tense_n have_v be_v be_v and_o shall_v be_v he_o press_v that_o these_o

abstain_v from_o wish_v and_o desire_v such_o a_o good_a for_o than_o our_o desire_n of_o such_o a_o temporal_a or_o accidental_a good_a have_v the_o strength_n to_o make_v we_o lift_v up_o our_o

conclusion_n be_v clear_a for_o see_v all_o other_o good_n be_v indifferent_a and_o depend_v from_o god_n providence_n and_o only_o these_o kind_n of_o good_n determine_v to_o we_o to_o be_v under_o god_n providence_n we_o can_v have_v no_o certainty_n of_o the_o grant_n of_o other_o see_v we_o have_v no_o warrant_n of_o be_v hear_v for_o any_o but_o for_o our_o own_o good_a as_o the_o experience_n of_o so_o often_o miss_v the_o effect_n of_o our_o prayer_n when_o we_o pray_v for_o te●…poral_a thing_n do_v put_v out_o of_o all_o doubt_n and_o for_o any_o man_n to_o contend_v that_o

very_o uncertain_a be_v to_o play_v the_o juggler_n as_o astrologer_n and_o other_o fortune-tels_a do_v and_o to_o be_v contemneed_a and_o condemn_v 13._o come_v now_o to_o apply_v this_o doctrine_n to_o our_o question_n as_o it_o be_v certain_a that_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a in_o common_a have_v effect_n so_o to_o come_v to_o particular_n and_o to_o say_v that_o it_o have_v effect_n upon_o this_o soul_n or_o that_o soul_n be_v whole_o uncertain_a but_o certain_a it_o be_v that_o it_o have_v good_a effect_n upon_o he_o that_o pray_v therefore_o clear_v it_o be_v that_o prayer_n for_o the_o dead_a be_v to_o be_v recommend_v to_o the_o faithful_a for_o the_o living_n sake_n for_o it_o be_v a_o clear_a case_n it_o do_v a_o great_a deal_n of_o good_a upon_o they_o it_o put_v they_o in_o mind_n of_o death_n of_o judgement_n of_o hope_n of_o resurrectfon_n and_o love_v it_o where_o they_o shall_v meet_v their_o friend_n and_o towards_o which_o alone_o they_o can_v assist_v their_o friend_n it_o make_v they_o see_v and_o loathe_v the_o vanity_n of_o the_o world_n out_o of_o which_o they_o lose_v their_o friend_n and_o see_v that_o they_o must_v have_v their_o time_n to_o follow_v and_o quit_v all_o this_o good_a which_o here_o delight_v they_o it_o make_v they_o love_v their_o friend_n and_o kins-folk_n or_o child_n more_o spiritual_o and_o because_o it_o have_v all_o these_o effect_n the_o strongly_a how_o more_o vehement_a their_o affection_n be_v to_o their_o decease_a friend_n therefore_o they_o be_v to_o be_v more_o incite_v to_o pray_v for_o they_o then_o for_o other_o but_o because_o man_n nature_n be_v frame_v so_o so_o as_o to_o expect_v a_o effect_n of_o his_o prayer_n god_n have_v not_o leave_v we_o without_o hope_n of_o great_a good_n to_o our_o
